Chapter 307 The Third Attack
It was a rare occasion for Hagrid to ask them for help, and they all agreed without much hesitation.
Fortunately, the beast banishing spell was just a simple spell. Although the project was huge, with the joint efforts of six people, it was finally completed in the evening.
They also received a thank you gift from Hagrid.
Cedric and Kyle got a lot of feathers from the bird, which are the largest pieces on the wings, perfect for making quills.
Kangna and Qiu's bag is a small bag for holding hair accessories and change. The weaving is a bit rough, but the unicorn hair material more than makes up for the lack of craftsmanship.
Of the six, only Fred and George came back empty-handed.
Cat nives are not easy to come across, it takes time.
Hagrid told Fred and George to go to the hut after Christmas so that they could meet Catnivet.
As for whether Fred and George can gain the trust of the cats and take them home, it depends on their own abilities.
After all, these magical animals are very smart and can always run away if they don't like it.
"I really hope tomorrow is Christmas." Fred said expectantly on the way back to the castle.
"What if the cat nives don't like us." George was a little nervous, and he turned to look at Qiu and Kangna. "Maybe it would be nice if we had a little bag, Ginny would like it too."
"Why didn't you say anything then!" Fred glanced at him. new
"I just remembered..."
The few of them talked and laughed all the way back to the castle. There was still some time before dinner, so they decided to go to the Room of Requirement on the eighth floor first.
Ever since Kyle told them about this magical place, it had become a great place to spend time.
But they had just reached the third floor when a sharp voice came from the corridor on the left.
"It's done, it's done! It's done again! No matter humans or ghosts, we are not immune! Run for your life!"
The sound is extremely penetrating.
Kyle and the others looked at each other and ran over quickly without paying attention to the Room of Requirement.
In a dark corridor, they saw Peeves yelling and two ghosts in a strange state.
Nearly headless Nick and Bloody Barrow, they became black and filled with smoke, lying flat and suspended six inches above the ground.
Nick, who was almost headless, had half of his head missing, and a horrified look was fixed on his face.
Harry stood between the two ghosts, looking at them in panic.
At the same time, more and more people swarmed in, but surprisingly, no one came close to the two ghosts and Harry. Everyone stood on both sides of the corridor, looking at Harry in the middle with complicated expressions.
"I'm notβ¦β¦"
Harry felt as if his stomach was frozen. He wanted to explain, but the words that came out were weak.
At this time, someone suddenly broke the silence and asked:
"Harry, do you see who turned them into this?"
"I didn't see it." Harry seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and explained quickly: "They were like this when I came, and then Peeves came, and he..."
"Stop talking nonsense, you did it!"
Macmillan of Hufflepuff squeezed out from the crowd, "Kyle, don't be fooled by him, he is a Parselmouth.
And on Duel Club, he once controlled a snake and wanted to attack Justin Finch-Fletchley.
Moreover, Justin just said that he would come to the third floor to pick up the book he forgot in the Transfiguration classroom. "
"You must have eavesdropped on our conversation, right?" He looked at Harry and said, "Fortunately, I lent him my book, so you didn't succeed!"
Behind MacMillan, a curly-haired boy was looking at Harry in horror. His face turned pale and he subconsciously leaned closer to Kyle, as if this way he would feel safe.

"I'm not, I didn't..." Harry explained: "I have been in the library all afternoon and haven't gone anywhere. How could I eavesdrop on you!"
"They were all caught on the spot..."
"That's enough, MacMillan!" Professor McGonagall walked out of the crowd and said sternly.
Professor Flitwick and Professor Sinister of Astronomy also arrived. They stepped forward and bent down to check on the two ghosts.
Peeves kept floating around overhead, looking very happy.
Ever since he saw Bloody Balor look like that, Peeves' smile never closed, and he even made up a song.
"Oh, Potter, you nuisance, look at the good things you've done.
You made a ghost, you think it's funny..."
"Stop it, Peeves!" Professor McGonagall shouted.
Peeves stuck out his tongue at Harry and ran to the other side to say hello to Kyle.
"Oh, little Kyle, you have to be careful, don't get killed...but it wouldn't be bad if you turned into a ghost."
"Peeves!" Professor McGonagall roared again, and Peeves ran away happily.
The two professors dispersed the crowd, and Professor McGonagall conjured up a large fan and handed it to Kyle, asking him to help take the nearly headless Nick and Bloody Barrow to the school hospital.
Kyle nodded and fanned the two ghosts down the stairs like balloons.
Professor McGonagall walked upstairs and said to Harry: "Follow me, Potter."
"Professor!" Harry said quickly, "I swear I didn't..."
"I have no control over this matter. Dumbledore wants to talk to you." Professor McGonagall replied briefly.
The two people's voices became farther and farther away, and soon nothing could be heard.
Kyle led the two ghosts through the hall and toward the campus hospital.
Their turnaround rate was so high that everyone they met along the way stared at them curiously.
"Kyle, what are you doing...Oh, isn't this the ghost of Gryffindor?"
In the courtyard, Kyle also met Lockhart. He looked at the almost headless Nick and said, "They made themselves a new suit?"
"It's an attack, Professor," Kyle said. "Same as the previous two."
"Of course I know this is the case. They must be under a certain curse." Lockhart grinned: "I have seen such ghosts in the vampire's castle. They offended the vampire and could only float like balloons. on the ceiling.
But with my persuasion, the vampires finally lifted their curse... I happened to remember this spell. "
"That's great." Kyle didn't stop and continued walking forward, "Then you can go to the campus hospital with me. Professor McGonagall asked me to send them there."
"Of course it's no problem, but I need to go back now to reply to my admirers."
Lockhart showed two rows of shining teeth, "Please tell Madam Pomfrey to wait for me for a moment, and I will go over immediately to help her solve this problem."
β¦
After arriving at the school hospital, Madam Pomfrey had nothing to do with the two ghosts. She could only ask Kyle to slap them into the corner and put them away, and then surrounded them with curtains.
As long as there is no wind, they will not run around.
Before leaving, Kyle said casually: "Professor Lockhart may be coming over soon."
"What is he here for?" Madam Pomfrey frowned.
"Says it's to help solve the ghost problem."
"Help?" Madam Pomfrey laughed angrily, "He can't even tell the difference between hellebore and double-leaf clover. The one who can only make up stories and has no skills..."
At this point, she suddenly realized that Kyle was here and quickly shut her mouth.
"It's nothing...just go back quickly."
